- Can't say much about Xenix and Cybernetics, but have had trouble with
- that product on another operating system. It seems to be an on-off
- type problem. Tried backing up a system - fails at various points
- and completes it successfully at other times. No problem in
- restores -- always on writing to tape. Fax'ed them a detailed
- report. They were stumped - so they said - and asked for the drive
- to be returned. Unfortunately I can't do that. This has happened
- on about 16 drives connected to 6 different systems. Am not real
- happy with the system or their response.
